This is by far the best sushi in Birmingham. There are some other places to get sushi, but this one is the most authentic. I heard the chefs are certified sushi maker from Japan. I came here to celebrate my friend's birthday so we ordered 2 best deal plates and 1 salmon plate. These plates successfully filled 7 hungry stomach with happiness. The price was a little bit pricy but it worth the taste. Definitely coming back here for more!
In my experience, good Sushi is hard to come by, especially when you live in a city which is as far away from the sea as it can get! There is, however, a place in Birmingham famed for the quality of its fish. Sushi Passion started in the Bullring Markets, using the fresh fish around it to create traditional Japanese sushi and sashimi, as well as fusion style sushi like California rolls. Recently they opened in a new location with a restaurant in the beautiful Victorian shopping destination and independent haven Great Western Arcade. I went along one lunchtime to give it a try. The first impression is always the most important and Sushi Passion makes an impression even before you get through the door. The window resembles a Zen garden with a large Bonsai, traditional artwork, kimonos and fans adorn the walls and ceiling, there is even a huge mural depicting a Japanese scene on one wall, where you can kneel and eat from traditional low tables. There was no room at the bar (which comes complete with Sushi train), so we sat at a table and enjoyed the surroundings. I had a green tea which came in the most beautiful teapot before we ordered Miso soup to start and a platter of assorted sushi to share. The Miso soup was lovely, with soft tofu and intensely savoury broth. When our platter arrived it looked amazing, with a selection of salmon & tuna nigiri, uramaki, futomaki and California rolls, as well as salmon sashimi, pickled ginger, wasabi and mooli. The fish was so fresh and the quality was obvious. The tuna was particularly good. I absolutely loved the California rolls with avocado, crab and red pepper, and the presentation was faultless. I can safely say this is some of the best Sushi I've had. The décor and its location in the Great Western Arcade make it a really lovely place to eat. I'm positive I'll be back.
Another amazing dinner at Sushi Passion. We were served by Ben who was very welcoming and friendly. Best sushi in Birmingham for sure! Highly highly recommend as a treat / for a special occasion, or just mid-week dinner!
I have eaten sushi on three continents and at countless restaurants. This one is by far one of my favorite. The atmosphere is exquisite, with soft background music and beautiful decor. They even allow one to sit at a traditional table. The food presentation was amazing.
Now let’s talk about service and taste. The service was some of the best I’ve had in the UK. The freshness of the sushi was tasted in every bite. Even my 6 year old loved it.
So if you enjoy fine quality sushi, going to this place is a must. We will definitely be back whenever we visit Birmingham.
What a place!!! Came here Sunday for my daughters birthday and all I can say is it was perfect. The customer service was five stars, the food was tasty and beautifully presented and the atmosphere and decor is lovely and very traditional to the food they serve. Made my daughters day! Thank you to you all for topping her day off ❤️
Great sushi and very friendly staff. We enjoyed the great authentic ambiance in the restaurant. On a next visit to Birmingham this is number one on our to do list.
2nd time here, came before the move. Very fresh sushi with a huge selection. Nice beers on offer. Meal for 3 with 2 drinks came to £160. Will keep coming back for our annual Christmas meal. Cute place, easy.

Best spot in Birmingham for sushi. I had a brilliant time at Sushi Passion. Ben was a great host to the restaurant and a dab hand at cocktails too! I had a Yuzu Highball although it was very hard to pick as all the cocktails sounded tasty. Head Chef Kamal and Chef Ram put together a lovely platter served with a warming miso soup. The cuts of fish were delicious and the selection of fish is really good for anyone who loves sushi or someone who is new to it. Was lovely chatting to the whole team made me so very welcome. After I tried a couple of eel rolls which were nothing short incredible, if anyone hasnt tried eel this would a great one to try. I finished off my meal with some freshly made green tea ice cream which was a perfect end to an amazing experience. Thank you guys for an amazing meal - I can't wait to come back!!
